This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

The present Tolume continues the Catalogue of the Additional
HSS., in order of acquisition, from the year 1861 to the end
of 1875, and includes descriptions of the Papyri, Additional
Bolls and Charters, Detached Seals and Casts, Egerton Manu-
scripts, and Egerton Charters, acquired during the period
from 1854 to 1875. It completes the Catalogue of acquisitions
for those years, with the exception of manuscripts in Oriental
bmguageSy which are separately described in the series of Oriental
Cstalogaes.
It has been an object, in this as in the preceding volume, to
pnt as much information into the descriptions of the manuscripts
as was compatible with conciseness ; and every volume is noticed.
But it was necessary to deal more briefly with the mass of docu-
ments comprehended under the general term of Charters. The
number of these acquired in the twenty-two years, from 1854
to 1875, amounts to more than sixteen thousand, comprising not
only grants of lands and other charters properly so called, but
Court-rolls of manors. Bailiffs' Accounts, Wills, and not a few
State documents. It would have been impracticable to describe
these individually ; and the aim has been to give a general view
of the collection, in such a form as might be useful as a guide
to the entries in the detaUed Catalogue of the Bolls and Charters,
still in manuscript.
Among so large a number of manuscripts and single docu-
ments as are described in the present volume, not under heads
of subjects but in order of their acquisition, it will be a labour of

27.694. Latin Bible, with ** interpretationes Hebraicorum nominum "
appended. Vellum ; written probably in France, in the latter part
of the xiuth cent. With illuminated initials of good execution.
Octavo.
27.695. Tractatus de septem vitiis " propter quae plurimum falitur
et decipitur omnis homo," et speciebus eorum. Imperfect. In the
prol(^ue the author states that he designs his treatise as a continua-
tion to a previous work on the four cardinal virtues ; that the stories
or instances which he introduces are derived from his grandfather,
Pelegrino Cocharelli, and that he writes for the instruction of his
children, and especially of his son John. At f. 3, reflections occur
which show the author to have been a citizen of Genoa. Vellum ;
written probably in Genoa in the latter part of the xivth cent. With
miniatures remarkable for natural expression and composition,
representing historical and social scenes ; and with coloured borders
filled with designs of natural objects admirably executed. The
miniature at f. 6 represents the capture of Tripoli, in Syria, by the
Sultan of Egypt, in 1288 ; and that at f. 6 b, the destruction of the
Templars in France and the subsequent death of Philip IV. From
the close agreement in choice of subjects and style of execution
with the characteristics attributed to the famous Genoese miniaturist
of the family of Cybo, known as " the Monk of Hydros " (as in the
painting of insects and larger animals, ships, and buildings), and
from the connection of the treatise itself with the city of Genoa,
the paintings may be reasonably ascribed to that artist. [See Add.

Vellum; xyth cent. Ornamented throughout with illuminated
borders, and having thirty-five large miniatures of the finest
execution. From the frequent introduction of the arms of Salnoes,
of Piedmont, into the borders, it appears that the volume was
executed for a lady of that house (probably Amadee, daughter of
Manfroy, Seigneur de Garde, circa 1450-1460), whose portrait is
painted in the miniature at £ 19. The arms of d*Urfe, with which
family that of Saluces was connected by maniage in the* xvith
century, have been subsequently added on ff. 77 b and 83 b. Small

'* Natale beatissimi patris nostri Francisci confessoris, duplex mains,"

the Franciscan order, is confirmed by the half-erased inscription
on f. 1, " Iste liber pertinet ecclesie S. Crucis de Florentia," the
Church of Santa Croce at Florence belonging to a Franciscan
house. As the arms, moreover, of Biario, surmounted by a
patriarchial cross, are introduced into the borders of ff. 7, 127 b,
it is probable that the MS. was executed for Fr4 Pietro Biario, a
Franciscan, Patriarch of Constantinople, Cardinal in Dec. 1471,
archbishop of Florence in 1473, 6b. 1474, and was by him pre-
sented to the Church of Santa Croce. Folio.

minute, and probably French, hand to one larger and evidently
English. The drawings are executed in outline, and as far as f. 15
are generally tinted or coloured. They show unusual power of
design and expression, with knowledge of the human figure, and
skill in treating the draperies. The obvious intention of expressing
an Oriental character in the features of the Hebrew figures is very
remarkable and uncommon, at the period. They may perhaps have
been executed in the province of Gasoony, at the beginning of
